"Whoever said it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved was full of crap."
I cannot believe I finally caved in. After the drama of the third book and what it did to my state of mind I declared it unsafe and potentially harmful to myself to read this book. But I am weak. So so weak. *hangs head*
See, I am absolutely crazy about this series. Just how crazy I am might become obvious after I have given you a glimpse into my twisted little mind. Even More...

I wanted to give it 5 stars because it was a very addictive read but wanted to give it 3 stars because the author pissed me off, leaving me in complete confusion on how I am suppose to feel. So I settled on 4 stars.

Kaylee and Nash are in limbo after she breaks up with him. Things shake up when Nash’s NIGHTMARE of an ex, Sabine shows up. Except, *and there’s zero catiness as I type this* Sabine really is a NIGHTMARE.
I’ve finally figured out what made me not like the first two: they read/sounded “young,” granted the books are YA, I just couldn’t connect their “youngish” tone. Basically, The premise was solid, but the writing was not on the mark. BUT Come the third book and now the fourth one, the More...

My Soul to Steal was another great addition to Soul Screamers. The series definitely has it's ups and downs for me. Somethings bug me - all the teenage angst mainly, but overall it's a good YA series about something we don't get elsewhere, bean shide.
I struggled throughout this one. At times I wanted to sit Kaylee down and have a "chat" with her. "Either love 'im or leave 'im. You're killin' the poor guy." While other times I wanted to support her. "T More...

SPOILERS! If you haven't read My Soul to Keep
From the description:
Trying to work things out with Nash—her maybe boyfriend—is hard enough for Kaylee Cavanaugh.
*coughs* Excuse me??? Your maybe boyfriend? THE DUDE LET YOU BE POSSESSED BY A DEMON, YOU ASSHOLE!!
Let's set this straight;
All of the things Nash has done to make you break up with him (or at least SHOULD)
1. He lied to you for a month about being high on Demon's Breath

This series just keeps getting better and better and My Soul to Steal is definitely my favorite thus far. The book starts with Nash and Kaylee's relationship in limbo as a result of Nash's addiction to "frost". Kaylee can't come to terms yet after everything that has happened. Enter Sabine, Nash's ex-girlfriend who is literally Kaylee's worst nightmare. Sabine's a "mara", someone who feeds off of other people's fears by way of their bad dreams and Kaylee seems to be #1 on her

Okay, so basically if you're familiar with the series, you know the main characters are Kaylee, Nash, Emma and Tod, and to a lesser extent Kaylee's dad, Nash's mom, Kaylee's cousin Sophie, etc. After Nash's actions in the previous book, Kaylee is -- understandably -- hesitant to trust him for much of My Soul to Steal and her inner turmoil is exploited even more when his ex-girlfriend Sabine comes to town and makes it clear that she'll do anything to get Nash back.

Rachel Vincent does it again and knocks another book awesome book out. My Soul to Steal is just as good as everyone says. Filled with raw emotions, a demon out to kill and a love triangle that will leave your heart torn and it’s definitely not one to miss.
This time around we see Kaylee and Nash going through their break up. Even though they’ve broken up, Kaylee is still unsure whether to get back with Nash because she doesn’t know if she can forgive and forget. When Nash’s ex-girlfrie More...

This book felt like pure filler, like it wasn't a novel in and off itself but something meant to bridge between this and the next book. I was bored by a lot of the inaction, which isn't something I've experienced in the series before. I've felt a lot of things about Rachel Vincent's writing and I didn't particularly like the main character in her adult series, but I've never felt quite so blah and bored before.

WARNING SPOILER ALERT!!!!This book made me conflicted a little. I feel like Sabine is a interferance and needs to back off. But towards the end you feel for her a little. I feel like Kaylee was wanting the best of both she didnt want Nash because she couldnt forgive him yet but didnt want anyone else to have him. I feel bad for Nash because though he let the demon take over kaylee she wasnt there for him as she should have been after or during. I also feel like Nash still has feelings for Sabine

See review on Paranormal Book Fan
My Soul to Steal is the fourth book in the Soul Screamers series. And just like the first 3, it didn't disappoint.
While Kaylee is still trying to learn to trust Nash again, after he let a hellion use her body and tried to Influence her to sleep with him all while addicted to demons breath, along comes his hot ex-girlfriend, Sabine. And she wants him back. There is a lot of jealously flying around between them and it attracts a hellion of env More...

When last we left poor Kaylee, she'd found out her boyfriend was a secret demon's breath huffer, and she'd put their relationship on hold over Winter Break.
The new semester dawned with a brand new Eastlake student named Sabine. Sabine is a brash sexpot. She's also Nash's ex-girlfriend, the one who took his virginity, and she's determined to get him back.
Naturally, Sabine isn't all human--she is a mara, or Nightmare, who feeds on people's deepest fears.

I really enjoyed this book. The personal tension with the characters rose to a level, that just kept me glued to the book. Nash's betrayal in My Soul to Keep, I wondered how the story would progress with Nash and Kaylee. I figured, he betrayed you move on, but I think this book did a good job of dealing with the aftermath of addiction and how it effects the addict and the ones who love them.

Synopsis:
Trying to work things out with Nash—her maybe boyfriend—is hard enough for Kaylee Cavanaugh. She can't just pretend nothing happened. But "complicated" doesn't even begin to describe their relationship when his ex-girlfriend transfers to their school, determined to take Nash back.
See, Sabine isn't just an ordinary girl. She's a mara, the living personification of a nightmare. She can read people's fears—and craft them into nightmares while her victims sleep. Fee More...

Kaylee and Nash are still on the outs in the wake of the Demon’s Breath issue, and Nash’s ex-girlfriend shows up at their school. But she isn’t human. She’s a mara. A nightmare, literally. She can go into people’s heads, twist their worst fears into terrifying nightmares, and she feeds off of that energy.
I had a hard time enjoying this one. Though I really do like this series.

*Sigh...This book was frustrating,to say the least. I felt like a parent trying to keep a sweet, but stubborn kid named Kaylee from making the biggest mistake of her life. What is this mistake, you ask? Well, getting back together with Nash,of course.

Dear Rachel, you know just how to drive your me insane, make me so angry that I scream at the book, and make it possible for me to finish your books within hours without lifting my head from the pages once. I love you and hate you at the same time for making me this crazy person whenever I read any of your books. But that just shows how talented you are and how intense your novels can be. Even though I may get mad at you for some of your decisions, I eventually come to understand that they are n

I'm really in between on how to rate this. It deserves 5 stars for nearly causing steam to come out my ears. But part of me wants to give it 4. I'll give it 5 because I'm still on a "high" from reading it. Might change it later.
Well, my Is This Love prediction between Kaylee and Tod didn't quite go as planned, but I daresay there is still hope!

I have to say, without a doubt, THIS book in the series has to be my favorite so far! Everything that has happened previously in the series has come to a head in My Soul To Steal. At least everything that involves Nash and Kaylee's relationship. If hellions, death and drug abuse was not enough to throw at this angst filled couple, then a supernatural ex-girlfriend could be the final straw.
I loved how the author paused the relationship of Nash and Kaylee in this book. It was need More...

I HATE KAYLEE!
Well not hate hate, but I'm finding her pretty annoying. The whole book left me frustrated as heck, I had to stop reading a few times to come down so I wouldn't throw the book (which is actually on my iPhone) across the room (thus breaking my beloved phone). Nash is going through some serious withdraws, and when recovering from an issue such as Nash's, obviously you're going to need a good friend to be there for you no matter what. And therein lies my frustration. The who More...

Having fought through and survived hellions, possessions, toxic plants, demon's breath and death, Kaylee is about to face her biggest threat yet. After being apart for two years Nash and his ex girlfriend Sabine have again found each other. But as much as Nash denies he still has feelings for Sabine, Kaylee can't help but wonder. After all Sabine is no ordinary ex girlfriend, she was his first kiss, his first love, his first everything.

Two weeks have passed since the events of the prior book and Kaylee is still struggling with whether or not she can trust Nash again since he'd lied to her and used his bean sidhe ability to Influence her mind while he was addicted to Demon's Breath. Her heart and head are warring with each other over the issue.

I found this book to be frustrating, that is not to say that it was bad by any means, it was great and tied as the best book in the series, but just some of the characters frustrated me.
First off? Nash. In my review of the previous book in this series I stated that I did enjoy seeing Nash knocked down a few notches, it made him seem more human(ish) and not the stereotypical popular pretty boy jock that he seemed to be in the first two books- but in this book? He was as sad as a puppy More...
